Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
JAGO
a Cassio
Eccola …Cassio… a te… Questo è il momento.
Ti scuoti… vien Desdemona.
Cassio va verso Desdemona, la saluta, le s'accosta
S'è mosso; la saluta
e s'avvicina.
Or qui si tragga Otello! …aiuta, aiuta
Sàtana il mio cimento!
Già conversano insieme … ed essa inclina,
sorridendo, il bel viso.
si vedono ripassare nel giardino Cassio e Desdemona
Mi basta un lampo sol di quel sorriso
per trascinare Otello alla ruina.
fa per avviarsi rapido all'uscio del lato destro, ma s'arresta subitamente
Andiam… Ma il caso in mio favor s'adopra.
Eccolo… al posto, all'opra.
English Libretto or Translation:
IAGO
(to Cassio)
There she is!... Cassio... it’s up to you!
Now’s the moment.
Rouse yourself... Here comes Desdemona.
(Cassio goes towards Desdemona, bows to her and steps closer.)
He’s made a move; he bows and approaches her.
Now let Othello be brought hither!...
Satan, assist my enterprise!
Now they speak together...
and, smiling, she turns her lovely face to him.
(Cassio and Desdemona are seen walking up and down
in the garden.)
I need but a single ray of such a smile
to drag Othello to his doom.
Away...
(starting to walk quickly away, then stopping suddenly)
But fate plays into my hands.
Here he comes... to my post, to work!
(He takes up a position by the terrace and stands there
motionless, his eyes fixed upon Cassio and Desdemona.
Othello enters; Iago pretends not to have seen him and
speaks as if to himself.)
I like not that...
